THIS BOOK GIVEN TO George H. Laura E. Brown Library BY BHM Library PACKRDMAK 19 4 6 VOLUME V Published by BETA CLUB WASHINCnON HIGH SCHOOL Washington. North Carolina BROVVN LIBRARY 122 Van Norden St. Washington, NC 27689 PEACE IS A PROCESS The roar of the guns in World War II has ceased. The defeat of the enemy was so complete that millions of our boys have returned to their homes. Boys who were Seniors here only a few months ago meet us on the street wearing Pacific, Mediterranean, and Euro¬ pean campaign ribbons. War has transformed them into bronzed and hardened veterans. They have done their job well; they have won the war. They and the whole world now look to us to win the Peace. That the silence of the guns did not bring Peace should not be disappointing to anyone. The guns have been silent before, but Peace did not come. What we must all understand and accept is that Peace is a process. It is an attitude of mind and spirit which leads us ultimately to accept every man as our brother and to accord him every right and privilege which we claim for ourselves. If we lose this as a goal, we lose the Peace. If we grow faint hearted now, the War Lords will again assume control. Civilization is at the crossroads. The path to Peace calls for Spiritual and Intellectual Recon¬ version; the process of directing all mankind in his thinking and in his feeling to the pursuits of Peace.

A Washington Daily Neivs — so many i)apers l y that name—the one back home—why, Betsy, you must be seeing things! “ H ' ashingioni Daily Neivs, WASH- IXOTOX, XORTH CAROKIXA, July 9. 1956??

Furthermore. “Mrs. Flovd Britlgers left today ti visit her (Uuigliter. Mary Bragg, in X’firfolk.

It is a scream!” “I guess it is, knowing X ' irginia.” “Look, honey, here’s an account of Martha Salee])y’s dancing .school recital, if you will! Remember the tapping she did in school?” “Never forget it, or Shirley XX ' oolard’s and my dance in the Junior Talent X ' ight—and, Betsy!, She’s Mrs. Bill George now. And did you notice that ‘Hilda’s,’ a dress shop owned by Hilda P2verette, is featuring a new line of suits designed by Joan Stanton? Remember she came to us in the Senior class? I believe the ad is on i age five.” ‘‘Oh, yes. here it is. and right beside it a beauty parlor adver¬ tisement—and, (ilenis Roberson is listed as one of the operators.

Alameda I eggett is a night club hostess in a little ])lace in Sacramento.” “Huh?! How nice.” “Look, X ivian. it says here that Aliss Alice XX’oolard has returned to Duke Hospital after spending the week-end in XX ashingtun. She’s a technician too, you know.” “Alore girls in our class liecame technicians and nurses, didn ' t they?
